Many years ago， there lived a very rich man who wanted to do something good for the people of his town. But first he wanted to find out if they deserved(值得)his help. So he put a very large stone in the middle of the main road into the town. Then he stood behind a tree waiting and watching.

Soon an old man came along with his cow. “Who put this stone in the center of the road?” said the old man， but he didn't try to move the stone away. He passed around the stone with some difficulties and continued on his way. Another man came along and did the same thing；then another came and another. All of them complained about the stone in the center of the road but nobody tried to move it.

Late in the afternoon a young man came along. He saw the stone and said, “It will be dark at night. Some people will come along later in the dark and will fall over the stone and get hurt.” The young man then began to move the stone. He pushed and pulled and tried everything he could to move it out of the road. But to his surprise， under the stone he found a bag full of money and this message, “This money is for the person who moves this stone from the road. The person deserves help.”

    13-year-old Addison Logan found a picture of his long-dead uncle inside a camera in May 2012. He bought the camera at a yard sale last Thursday. He often goes to yard sales, where he can buy many things at very low prices.

    The Arkansas boy said he bought this old camera for just one US dollar when he visited a yard sale with his grandmother. He liked taking pictures and he thought a second-hand camera was OK for him to practice taking pictures. Although it was not a digital(数字的) camera, it looked just very nice. When they got home, he took off the camera's film(胶卷) box and found a picture of a man. His grandmother said that the man was her son, Scott, who died in a traffic accident 23 years before.

    It seemed that Scott took the picture with his girlfriend in 1978 or 1979. “It's almost like he's reaching out to us, to tell us that he is still with us, ” said Addiso's father.

    A frightening incident took place Sunday night on a plane. According to reports, the United Airlines overbooked (超额预订) the flight, so they asked passengers to give up four tickets so that four United Airline staff (工作人员) could take the seats. The airline first looked for volunteers. They offered $400 for anyone who agreed to leave the flight, then increased to $800 and a hotel stay, but no passengers would give up their seat. In the end, the airline staff used computer to select four people to be kicked off the flight.

    A 69-year-old passenger among the four unlucky passengers refused to leave and said he had to work at a hospital the next day. Three guards then showed up and pulled him out with force. The old man was badly hurt after the struggle. The flight finally left after two hours.

    The scene was recorded by other passengers and posted on the Internet. You can hear the old man shouting at the guards, saying what they were doing was wrong. Many people expressed their anger at the incident.

    The CEO of United Airlines defended the actions of the staff. In a letter he said to his staff, “Our people followed the rules for dealing with situations like this,” His response to the incident was thought as having a bad attitude. After the incident, United Airlines loses $800 million in the stock market (股市). A day and a half after the incident, United Airlines finally admitted it did something wrong. The government will survey the incident to find out whether the United Airlines had followed the rules.

    Have you ever been to America? I was only an 11-year-old girl when my parents 1 me that we would soon move to America. We were on the bus then. I cried. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never 2 the radio programme for school children again which I listened to every morning.

    In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying 3 to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving, I even felt a little 4 because I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.

    The first four years in America taught me the 5 of optimism (乐观), but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost. I had to study in three schools and spent most of my time learning the English language. I hardly had any time for 6. Sometimes I did not quite know what l was or what I should be. My mother 7 and things became even harder for me. It took me some time to get used to staying with my stepfather (继父). I was often 8, and saw no end to "the hard times". I had to do many things for the family since I knew English better than everyone else at home.

    9, things got better and better later and almost all common troubles 10 at last. From those experiences I have learnt one important rule: Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little.
